About Center Stage Theater
 
    
 

Center Stage Theater at Merkaz Hamagshimim Hadassah was founded in 1997 by Kate Nachman Brody as a creative home for olim, Anglos, and Israelis alike.
We produce
exclusively English-speaking productions that feature talent both professional and amateur, and aim to provide outlets for creativity through both performance and production. Our seasonal repertory spans plays ranging from Shakespeare to contemporary, well-known to world-premiere, by playwrights from Israel and abroad.
 
Since its inception, CST has developed into a community theater featuring both olim and native Israelis,
spanning the range from first-time performers to trained professionals. 
CST is a vibrant, innovative environment in which artists in all fields of theatrical endeavor can flex their creative muscle. 
CST is committed to presenting its audience with several quality productions each year, and is noted for the superiority and variety of its productions. 
CST stages an extensive and multi-faceted repertory of Classics/Modern Classics, Musicals, Children's shows, Original plays and Experimental Theater.
   
Notable past productions include:
The Comedy of Errors
Tick, Tick, Boom
She Stoops to Conquer
RENT
Free to Be…You and Me
No Exit
A Shayne Maidel
Little Shop of Horrors
Steel Magnolias
We also feature a series of short plays in our annual Director's Showcase, and Spontaneous Combustion, a 48-hour-play festival. 
  •  CST has been awarded English Amateur Drama in Israel's award for Israel's Best Performance, and has represented Israel at international theater festivals.
  • CST holds open auditions before each of its productions, and we are always pleased to welcome individuals interested in being involved in the creation of a production, whether onstage or behind the scenes.
